resveratrol

Does anyone have any information on this new wonder natural supplement resveratrol. A non raw food friend of mine started taking it and hopes it will make him live a long long life with high child like energy. Its an enzyme supplement in very very high doses. If you have any thoughts on this new item please let me know. Thanks peace

  • Here’s what Virginia Boutenko say’s about resveratrol in her book, “12 Steps to Raw Food” (I was just reading this earlier today!), “An important nutrient, resveratrol, promises to lengthen life and prevent or treat aging-related diseases. Resveratrol is found in grapes, grape leaves, red wine and olive oil, as well as some vegetables. Reasearchers have found that the molecules of resveratrol activate a family of enzymes responsible for lifespan in different living organisms including humans.” My personal experience has been that extracted supplements don’t work nearly as well as eating the whole food which contains the natural healing power. I would suggest to your friend that he eat some raw grapes and drink red wine, instead of wasting his money on supplements.

  • thanksyou guys, I do agree with both of your responses. It has been tested on rats for six years, the rats/mice lived three times longer than their expected life span. Poor mice imagine living three times your life span in a cage you don’t want to be in. I do hope it can help the cronically ill at least. Thanks again.
